Lots more images and stories to be shared
Tiles make me yearn for a composition,the only thing around was a mango tree...Images being saved day in and day out in the comp...
My camera works throughout clicking and clicking with the thought that these images may be shared and appreciated..
Thoughts work for new compositions ,but you cant resist the same compositions...
Travels make you find more subjects,but with the time limit being short and tasks to be accomplished in between, gave me less time to click more and travel in peace
There ought to be many more travels this year and the coming years only for my camera
Images are from last month's travels at my Dad's place,a village in Alleppey
Hibiscus flowers being a favourite,i kept on collecting them during the travel,they made aprop on the tiles

I am unfamiliar with Ixora and Imli...what do they taste like? Do you eat them fresh or cooked? I'm quite curious. Thank you for sharing your experiences!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots. I loved the one of the neem leaves and the violet blooms. So pretty and so earthy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous, gorgeous home your parents have. I so want to sit on that veranda! And 'imli' is tamarind, isn't it? What you shot is actually 'bimbli' (or at least that's what we call it back home :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments
ReplyDeleteNAtalie:Ixora are a type of flowers which belongs to the Family Rubiaceae.They are available in different colors,yellow,red,white pink,orange...
Regarding Imli,The normal imli is called tamarind,which imparts a sour taste to the dish which we are cooking.The one in the picture is at of Tamarind,but it is called Bimbli,what mixed brew has told,It can be used aflavouring agent in fish dishes..can be used for making pickles...
